Chapter 338: Survival in the Last Days (78)
The sister-in-law smiled on the side: "It's okay, his brother bought a lot of bacon sausages earlier, all of which are vacuum-packed, and they are not eaten every day, and they are all kept for the New Year." This is early before the New Year, don't worry about this, no matter what we do, you are old, just enjoy your blessings. ”
The old lady didn't think so, and thought about Zhao Youyou's confinement: "Aren't there still a few chickens in the greenhouse in the backyard?" Although the eggs are not diligent, they can be picked up every two or three days, and they can be picked up and brought back, and they are all kept and not eaten, so as to make confinement for the second daughter-in-law to replenish her body. No way...... Let's kill two of them and stew them for her. If there is no milk, what will happen to the child? ”
Qing Soul smiled: "Look at your worries. Let's relax, even if the second sister-in-law has no milk, isn't there still milk powder? Prepare it for her early, and keep enough for your little great-grandson to drink until she is three years old. The weather is now around, and it can't be broken. Sister-in-law, let's cook, don't listen to the milk, otherwise today's lunch will be rice and pickles. ”
A room full of people laughed.
Qing Soul went to his house and brought beef bones.
In these days, I obviously have everything, but if I want to eat, I have to find excuses.
You can eat whatever you want at home, but if you want your grandma to eat well, you have to think about it.
When will the snow disaster pass?
Even if the climate has remained Ice Age, at least the grain should have been grown earlier.
Thinking of the grain, thinking of the wheat planted in the greenhouse, the green soul sighed. How can it be a difficult word?
I don't know when the good news will come from the country's experimental base.
At noon, the eldest brother came back, and the whole family had a lively lunch. After lunch, the eldest brother didn't go out, stayed at his grandmother's side, and pulled his grandfather and second uncle to play mahjong. I guess it's okay in the afternoon.
Qing Soul went to the greenhouse and went around, looked at the growth of vegetables, the temperature and humidity in the shed, and saw that everything was normal, so he went home.
This trip out, she used a lot of bread hidden in the storage ring, and she didn't have much else in the space, just a lot of wheat flour, so she simply baked bread at home.
After baking hundreds of pieces of bread, she collected two-thirds of it, and kept some of the rest at home, and sent some to her grandmother and second uncle's family, because she added red dates and raisins, and her family said that her baking skills were getting better and better. Qing Soul smiled and said, "Anyway, there is an oven at home, so I'll bake some biscuits and cakes in the next few days." ”
In the evening, the sister-in-law used beef bone soup to order noodles, and Qing Soul ate a big bowl: "The noodles under the bone broth are the most delicious." In the future, we will stew a pot if we have nothing to do, and a pot of soup can be eaten for a few days. ”
Life just goes on unhurriedly.
In August, Zhao Youyou gave birth to a baby boy, and after the child was full moon, he was taken back to the countryside, and it was already September.
The weather started to deteriorate again, and after a few light snowfalls, it finally snowed heavily, which made people nervous all of a sudden.
Brother Yan sent all the charcoal in Tun.
There is not much charcoal, but fortunately, I have been storing firewood, and I am not afraid. And after more than a year of extreme cold, in addition to worrying about food, everyone is calm about this cold weather.
Fortunately, news finally came that the national experimental base on the outskirts of the city had grown wheat, and although the output was limited, it was finally able to grow grain.
However, the wheat is grown in a solar greenhouse built by the state with the highest technology, so even if it can be grown in a short period of time, it is destined to be impossible to grow on a large scale.
How high the construction cost of the new type of greenhouse of light energy is, Qingsoul knows better than anyone else.
Fortunately, the country's main input is now on grain, so no matter how high the cost, it will also expand planting, although it cannot solve the problem of food shortage in a short period of time, but the greenhouse is expanding, and the yield per mu should also slowly increase, at least this good news can make people see hope.
And the use of greenhouses to grow vegetables, is not a village in Nanshan Village, there are also many places outside the greenhouse, the country sees the folk greenhouse planting, although it can not grow food, but can grow vegetables, it is better than sitting on the mountain and eating empty, vegetables can be entered, can alleviate the food shortage. So that's encouraged.
After the relevant material control, we finally began to allocate steel wires, steel bars, plastic films and other materials in a targeted manner.
Nanshan Village also received a portion of the supplies allocated from above. In addition to the original eleven greenhouses in the village, twenty-five greenhouses were built, making a total of thirty-six greenhouses. Each greenhouse has about three points of land, and there are nearly eleven acres of land.
Of course, the materials for building greenhouses are not given in vain, and the grain is exchanged for the vegetables produced, which is of course more important than eating vegetables. Therefore, the upper head is not afraid of the village where vegetables are planted in greenhouses below, and the vegetables are kept without changing the grain.
However, because the top exchanging grain for vegetables, in principle, the bottom is not allowed to trade freely.
Fortunately, the price given by the top is very fair, and those who have planted greenhouses in each village are not willing to toss blindly.
In fact, even if you are given free trade, now that food is so expensive, no one is willing to take it out.
Because of the construction of this wave of greenhouses, the anxiety in the hearts of the people is less.
However, although the heart is relaxed, you can also exchange some food, but how much grain can you exchange for ten acres of vegetables?
By the second year, the families had basically run out of food, and some families had reached the point where they could only drink two meals of porridge a day.
Brother Yan asked Qing Soul what to do with her food.
Qing Soul said: "More than 200,000 catties of grain, enough for our village to eat another year." I can take it out now, but I'll have to find a good excuse. ”
Excuses can't find anything else.
It can only be said that it was from the former tun.
The brother and sister secretly put all the food in the old village and the primary school. In the past two days, Brother Yan only said that he had gone to the city and did not show up in the village. On the evening of the third day, Brother Yan went to find Uncle Cheng, saying that he had got a batch of grain, which had been secretly stored in the old village.
When Uncle Cheng heard this, he didn't say a word, and pulled Brother Yan to run to the old village and the abandoned primary school.
Seeing that the house was piled up with bags of grain, I almost went crazy.
Touching the grain bag, the old man's tears fell.
"You...... Where did you get it? This is not food, this is the lifeblood of life. ”
Brother Yan smiled: "Didn't I want to do a grain business before?" I also asked the little fifth uncle to greet me, I want to collect grain, have you forgotten? These are what I used to collect, but then the weather was wrong, so I didn't dare to squeak. Thinking that there is still food in the village, no one will die of hunger. If you keep this food, you may really become life-saving food. No, now I really can't stand it, don't I take it out and keep it moldy? But uncle, you also know, I don't dare to say it, let people know that I have so much food in my hands, is a curse or not a blessing. So I secretly shipped it back. Don't say that these grains are mine, ask Uncle Xiao Wu to come over, just say that I collected it with him, you have been ventilated here earlier, you let us stay until now and not squeak.
